For new build, when is electrical plan done?

19 years ago

I confess ignorance. We're having a new house built and want to specify where wall switches and receptacles go. Pretty exactly. Don't just want them stuck where there's a stud. So, what I'm thinking is you don't wait till the framing is done and later on do a walk-through with the electrician to place things. You should decide where you want wiring devices BEFORE the framing is done, so you can have the framing you need for where you want them to go.

Am I right or totally misunderstanding things? And I don't want any of those devices that get supported by flare out wings behind the sheetrock, like a toggle bolt works.
